Influenza Vaccine Fails to Stop Hospitalization and Death

ER Editor: See what Dr. Paul Alexander has to say about Dr. Peter McCullough reporting on a large Japanese study (more than 83,000 subjects) on the flu vaccine given to the over 65s, the usual target demographic of this vaccine. Of note:

Influenza vaccine failure! Uemura 2023 (Japan study report) shows us what we have been saying all along that the flu shot is ineffective & never worked & will not! McCullough leads on this with strong

reporting in his stack that ‘the massive effort on flu vaccination in the general population is a waste of time and effort; the frail and elderly get no overall reduction death, hospitalization

Key finding:

‘study identified moderate vaccine effectiveness in preventing the incidence of influenza in the Japanese elderly. Vaccine effectiveness showed a trend of gradual attenuation. Clinicians should suspect influenza infection even in those vaccinated, especially in elderly individuals who had received vaccination more than 4 or 5 months previously.’

***

This is on the level of anecdote but we recall Dr. Judy Mikovits saying in a recent interview that the flu shot had been weaponized before the Covid ‘vaccines’ were rolled out, as a kind of complement to the Covid shots. Elsewhere, we read that the elderly in northern Italy, those who fell particularly sick with ‘Covid,’ had reportedly been subject to two rounds of vaccines prior to this – flu and meningitis.

There is simply no reason why we’re putting this garbage in our bodies.

Influenza vaccination has become a mainstay in American medicine largely as measure to protect the elderly. However, in recently decades the FluShot has been pushed on healthcare workers, the general adult public, and starting in 2017 the CDC ACIP Panel stated: “Routine annual influenza vaccination is recommended for all persons age 6 months and older who do not have a contraindication.”

I wondered if the FluShot even did was it was supposed to do originally in the elderly—protect against hospitalization and death. I was disappointed by real world data.

Uemura and coworkers from the Department of Biostatistics & Bioinformatics, Interfaculty Initiative in Information Studies, University of Tokyo, Japan reported on 83,146 individuals who were aged 65 years or older at baseline and were followed up between April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2020.

The multivariable analysis showed a lower incidence of influenza in vaccinated individuals (hazard ratio [HR], 0.47; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.43-0.51; P < 0.001); however, the incidence of hospitalization for influenza did not differ significantly by vaccination status (HR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.53-1.18; P = 0.249). Protective effectiveness against incidence waned quickly after 4 or 5 months.

These data suggest the massive effort on vaccination in the general population is a waste of time and effort. If the frail and elderly get no overall direct reduction in hospitalization and death, influenza vaccination should be individualized based on pulmonary and systemic risks.
